  1. Thank you very much for your kind words.

    By the sound of it, you recorded the violin live and the rest is samples?  

    Is there more of your music to listen to?

    Yes. that's right. We recorded a live violin and the rest are soundfonts I found over the net. Now I work with samples which are far better.

    I have a full cd with my compositions, But I'll upload from time to time pieces in the link above.

  2. As I've said I used a tempo slowing software that reduces the tempo down to 10% So I'm certain for bars 2, 4, 6 of my transcription. I also used the version heard in Home Alone 2 which was with 2 flutes and it made it easier to figure out the notes. As for bars 1, 3, 5, (besides that I hear it this way in the slowed down tempo) I have found a midi file by Frank Lehman and when I open it with sibelius it's transcribed the same : A F A Bb A-A F A Bb A. Also the left hand (in my version) goes with the main melody of the tremoli violins:

    D A D F- D A D F- D

    (violins melody in bold)

  3. why does the second note right hand become a f and there is this wierd crossing? wouldn't the second note RH also be an a? then the left hand second note is a f?
    I've always heard the theme as being A A A Bb A, not A F A Bb A. You have the 2nd A of each group in the accompaniment instead of the melody.

    Play it in the way you say (with 3 A in a row in the right hand) and hear the difference. In keyboard instruments such as celesta (or piano) it doesn't sound nice.It's all in the phrasing.

    It's the same like the cavalry finale from Rossini's William Tell Overture. it's not the same playing GGG GGG GGCDE with the same finger in G all the way and playing it 321 321 changing finger positions . The second is a lot better and has the sound it should have.

  4. I always loved the celesta part in Home Alone theme and I was wondering how it would be in sheet music. here's a trancription I made after a lot of effort using a tempo slowing software. Does anyone have another version? I also have posted a topic in the trading area about looking for the Home Alone piano folio to see eventually if this is it!
